THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL,
Paw Faaple Knorr How laefal It Is la
Preserving Health a ad Beauty.
Nearly everybody knows that charcoal ia
tha safest and most efllclent disinfectant
and purifier In nature, but few realise Its
value when taken Into the human system
for the same qleanslng purpose.
Charcoal Is a remedy that the more you
take of It the better; It la not a drug at
all, but simply absorb the gases and Im
purities alwaya present In the stomach and
Intestines and carries thera out 'of the
system.
Charcoal sweetens the treat after amok
Ing, drinking or after eating onions or
Other odorous vegetables. '
Charcoal effectually cleara arid Improves
tha complexslon. It whitens the teeth and
further acts aa a natural an1 Imlnently
safe cathartic.
It absorbs the Injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; It dis
infects the mouth and throat from the
poison catarrh.
All druggist sell charcoal In one form or
another, but probubly the best charcoal
and the most for the money is In Stuart's
Charcoal Losenges; they are composed of
tha finest powdered Willow charcoal, anT
Other harmless antiseptics In tablet form
or rather In the form of large, pleasant
tasting losenges, the-charcoal being mixed
With honey.
Tha dally use of thesa .Wengea will soon
tell In a much Improved condition of the
general health, bettet - complexion, sweeter
breath and purer blood, and the beauty
ef It Is, that no possible harm can result
from their continued use, but on the
ortktm-y, great benefit.
A Buffalo physician In speaking of the
beaeflta of charcoal, aays: "I advlaa
Stuart's Charcoal Loaengo to all patients
suffering from gaa In atomach and bowels,
and to clear the complexion and purify
the breath, mouth and throat; I also believe
tha liver is greatly benefited by the dally
uae of them; they cost but $6 cents a box
at drug stores, and although In aome sense
a patent preparation, yet I believe I get
more and better charcoal In Stuart'a Char
coal Losenges than In any of the ordinary
charcuei tablets."

Ak-Sar-Ben's magician, the electric light
company, waved Its wand, of, more mod
enly speaking. Its armature, very rapidly
In a circular manner last night snd pro
duced an effect which all the magicians
of Blnbad's time and all the magicians
before his day snd since then would have
envied exceedingly and tried in vain to
Imitate. All of which means the street
lights for the tenth festival were turned
o"h to mark the first big night of the carni
val. The little globes of fire picked out
the lines of the great buildings snd made
new things of them; they lined the streets
and made some rather commonplace thor
oughfares seem splendid; they arched
across the ways like captured comets. The
whole still air above the city glowed In
candesccntly from their reflection.
Ak-Sar-Ben's Own how.
At the carnival grounds two people were
almost Injured last night. They attempted
to go post the frowning palace of the Ak-Sar-Uen
show and were caught. in the
crowd that was enthusiastically trying to
get Into the exhibit oil at one time. The
show was opened for the first time and
the result was noticeable In the lighted
streets and the vast concourse of people
who had gathered in the grounds through
the rumor that "The Bridal Chamber"
would be open to the public. Considerable
excitement was noticeable during the after
noon over the expectation of this opening.
The massive building wherein the show has
been Installed was closed until late In the
afternoon. Then fiv hnavlly loaded wagons
wers driven up at ft Cracking pace and a
large number of men, many of them for
eigners, Judging by the"' garb, worked rap
Idly In transferring the precious exhibit to
Its quarters. Later the board of govern
or", the mayor, some newspaper men and
Prof. Watcrhouse were given a private
view. The doors were thrown open at8
o'clock. A modpst banner In front shows
the title, "The Bridal Chamber." Every
one who was so fortunate aa to be able to
get through the gates was charmed with
.the plqnnnt daintiness and delicate loveli
ness with which the subject Is handled.
Until further notice the admission will ,be
10 cents, with season tickets for art stu
dents, and others of 10 cents per Ave ad
missions. The governors positively refuse
to have children under 15 years old enter
the gates unless coming with parents or
having their written consent.
flnmvthlnar that la Blar.
Speaking of large, there Is nothing larger1
on the carnival grounds than the 181-pound
squash. Were it not for the centering of
interest at ttw Ak-Sar-Ben show people
would be crushed against the sides of this
mammoth vine product' It waa grown at
Forty-seventh and Ida streets, where there
Is plenty of room. The squash, It la said,
grew between two houses there and unfor
tunately In expanding It forced one of
hem off Its foundation. But the owner
was willing to be put to the Inconvenience
rather than . circumscribe the operations of
the squash. The whole of the Douglaf
County Agricultural society's exhibit is on
similar giantlike scale. f
Saturday night saw the largest crowd of
the year and at an early hour it promised
to outdo the gathering of tfe first carnival
Saturday of 1903, which was 16.872. It Is
thought a new Oriental show, "The Mys
terious Aga," will open up Monday. It
comes from St. Louis to take the place of
the volcano exhibition.

ent indications are fulfilled the near fu
ture will 8e a spirited fight between the
grain skippers along the Rock Island and
the railroad ' ompany. For weeks and
months the cmpany has been laying off
men, reducing the forces and discarding I
operating forces, always giving as the rea- J
son the gcneril dull business of the season.
At this time (he conditions do not prevail,
but the comiuny is still short-handed and j
there are Dirty-five tralnloada of grain I
between Del Moines and Sibley waiting I
for the can to move it. The men owning
the grain lave asked for cars find have j
been unablf to secure them.
Dealers sty that the same conditions pre
vail on tic other branches of the road
In this stele and that they will appeal to j
the Rallrwad commission If matters are
not betterfd In the near future.
"The fact is," said a prominent grain
buyer In this city today, "that the com-
